Electromotive Drug Administration of Magnesium Sulphate on Hypertrophic Scar
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
In this study 80 patients will be randomly assigned into two equal groups (40 patients for each group): 1. Group A: Experimental: Magnesium Sulphate Iontophoresis for Postburn Hypertrophic Scar The study group includes 40 postburn hypertrophic scar patients will receive Magnesium Sulphate iontophoresis twice a week for 4 weeks; in addition to their traditional physical therapy program (deep friction massage, stretching and pressure therapy). 2. Group B: Control: Traditional physical therapy for postburn hypertrophic scar This group includes 40 patients with postburn hypertrophic scar who will receive only the traditional PT (deep friction massage, stretching and pressure therapy) 2 sessions per week for 4 weeks

Interventions
Magnesium Sulphate Iontophoresis
Iontophoretic drug delivery system (phoresors II auto model PM850 IOMED) The phoresors II auto model PM850 IOMED allows the user to deliver a specific dose from 0 to 80 mA/min, control the current from 0 to 4 mA and automatically calculates required time for the selected dose. Current ramp-up and down, shut-off, error messages and safety checks are also performed automatically. The builtin option for manual current shut-off is an added safety feature (Teslim et al., 2013). * Electrodes: Active-Anode (Drug Delivery). * Drug Used: MgSO4 Aqueous Solution. * Drug Ion Polarity: Positive Polarity.
